The only fate worse than being a Liberal Democrat in 2016 is being a Scottish Liberal Democrat. Which means the job of Willie Rennie, the leader of the Scottish Liberal Democrats, can’t really be much fun, right?
Wrong.
Launching the party’s suicide note manifesto for the upcoming Holyrood elections today, Rennie summoned the world’s media to a soft play area. That’s right. He wants to be First Minister, but he’s still not outgrown Clown Town.
Looks like he enjoyed himself though.
